“Good job, Bubba!” After taking the flash drive from him, Elise gave Irvin a big sloppy kiss on the cheek.

“Next time, I‘m going to charge you for battling on your behalf, Mommy,” said the boy as he wiped the saliva away with contempt.

Since knowing the homework was Elise’s duel, Irvin had been nagging non-stop about being tricked.

“Aw, come on, Boo Bear, must we do this? Am I not your mother?” Elise had no intention of paying the little man.

“Use Daddy’s money then.” Irvin was stretching his hands toward Alexander in the first place.

He made a face in a grievance. “My experiments use up a ton of money. Besides, Mr. Jamie’s still in Caverdon, isn’t he? Who‘s to say my medicine can’t excite his nerves and wake him up?! If I really achieve success, we don‘t have to worry about losing a partner like BJ Biotech. If anything, I have this family’s best interest at heart.”

Irvin had used every trick in his book to fish as much money as possible.

Meanwhile, Elise nodded barely noticeably. Trevor had been in a coma for seven years. Though his organs could return to top shape, they could no longer withstand further torment, and the poor man would be as good as dead if he didn’t wake up soon.

“Alright then, your daddy’s allowance for the next half of the year is all yours,” Elise announced generously, leading the boy’s eyes to glow.

“How much are we talking about?”

“About a little over ten million,” Elise stated, causing Irvin to click his tongue in disdain.

“That’s it?! Daddy’s really broke.”

“Excuse you!” Alexander couldn’t help wanting to make his presence known.

“Make your own money if you think that’s not enough.” Elise could save all the trouble.

“No! I’ll take it!” Irvin took the win at once. “Ten million is better than nothing. I’m happy with that.”
